Property code: OC-S45328

Set less than 500 metres from the beating heart of seaside Brixham, this charming coastal cottage offers the perfect base for families exploring the coast and countryside of South Devon together. Enjoy the short stroll down to Brixham’s centre and find a wealth of things to do on the harbourside. Sample the many seafood restaurants, stop for a pint in a sea-view pub, watch the trawlers come and go, and stride out along the dramatic Brixham Breakwater. For days on the beach, Shoalstone Beach, Breakwater Beach and lesser-known Fishcombe Cove are all within a mile. Connecting the beaches is the South West Coast Path, which you can explore further towards Paignton or the tucked-away Man Sands (both within 2 miles). Leave the car at home for the day and catch the Western Lady ferry from Brixham Harbour to Torquay. Other popular destinations nearby include Dartmouth and Totnes (both within 10 miles).

Step into this welcoming Brixham home and be greeted by an open-plan lounge/diner filled with natural light thanks to a sunny bay window. Unwind in the lounge after days on the coast; sink into the soft seating, flick through the Smart TV, and fire up the wood burner during the chillier months. Books and board games are provided for rainy days. In the next room, a modern kitchen sits beneath a skylight, offering an airy, well-appointed space for cooking up holiday feasts. Enjoy each meal back in the dining room or alfresco in the courtyard garden. At the end of each day, four restful bedrooms are spread across the first and second floors upstairs. On the first floor, choose from a children’s bunk room and a spacious super-king-size bedroom, both served by a family bathroom. Up on the second floor, you’ll find a cosy double bedroom with views across Brixham, and a flexible king-size room with zip-and-link beds that convert to twins on request. A separate WC completes the accommodation.

Outside, accessed from the kitchen, awaits a sun-catching courtyard garden. Enclosed and secluded, this peaceful space features outdoor seating, perfect for evening tipples and al fresco nibbles.
